BLUEPRINTS.

This is to confirm that you will appoint three or four of your detail draughtsmen to work on the cabinets on the EBs. EWs. DBs. DWs. GBs. GWs. FBs.{F. Bell-Scott} FWs.

The proposal is to use as many of the Experimental blueprints as possible to fill in the shortages in these cabinets and then get out a list of missing drawings. Mattinson will then supply these missing drawings, which will enable us to have a complete set of detail prints for our use at the Clan Foundry.

The cabinets will not be moved until the Print Store which is being constructed is complete.
